We sent a swarm of AI agents to solve Karpathy’s NanoChat benchmark, and they crushed SoTA in 3 days.

We built our own harness on top of a graph database to do auto-autoresearch, each iteration learning from mistakes to do research better.
The team wrote >15,000 entries. 🧵

Most agent demos stop working when you close the chat. Ours accumulates knowledge even when we sleep.

@venkatGoku used our OSS autoresearch harness to research a better C++ factory scheduler. It beat an expert-designed solver on 29/30 fresh problems and runs with no LLM.

We got agents to train a 15M-param RL agent which solves Craftax, a 2D Minecraft-inspired game.

Here are 5 fun expert-level strategies the model learned, all on its own. We OSSed the model trainer on github.

1. It jails monsters in tiny stone cells and leaves them there.

Experts doubted a small neural net could beat Craftax without an LLM's knowledge.

Our agent meta-harness built one in 3 weeks. The 15M-param agent beats the final boss 44% of the time, costing a cent, and 10 seconds.

GPT-6 Astra won 1%, taking 24 hours and $83. 🧵

Huge shoutout to @daphnesolves and @puffer_ai for their work on PufferLib, which is an awesome piece of software! It's what inspired us to try the challenge. And big thanks to @creus_roger for writing out a detailed summary of GPT-6 Astra solving Craftax.
